I’ve always used Windows and am super comfortable with it. I have set up a dual boot with fedora but don’t use it because I have never identified a need to use it. I see a lot of windows hate, so what does Linux have that I need? What can motivate me to migrate? What is a good Linux to have for a desktop + steam?

    Hey, if you’re comfortable and happy with Windows, and don’t feel the need to switch, then don’t feel pressured. If you want to try Linux for fun, try a distro like Arch, that gives you a lot of control and a lot to play with.

        I’d argue it’s perfectly fine for beginners with time and desire to learn. The Arch Wiki is a great resource.

        EndeavorOS is more beginner friendly and still an Arch based distro.

          No, its great for begginers that want to understand their OS, are curious and have technical background, don’t be crazy

        What is a beginner? Somebody who wants to install and never tinker with the system again? Those users should not try ANY linux in my opinion. But if you are willing to learn and check resources in the internet on how to solve problems, what better place than the best online linux documentation EVER?
